i just updated to the latest svn this morning and now m4v files will not transfer to an ipod video...i says no playable on device....is this a known issue and if so is it going to be fixed soon?

This was done so intentionally: current libgpod (as in cvs) does not provide information about the exact ipod model. Thus, amaroK cannot know that your ipod is actually an ipod video. At some point in time, libgpod might regain this capability. Then, this can be fixed within amarok. But currently there is no way of doing it, as you don\'t want to transfer m4v\'s to regular ipods.
